The webinar concentrates on the proper compaction of embankments and around culverts. This one hour webinar (one contact hour) is relevant for all SWM/ESC certification renewals. The webinar discusses the restoration or improvement of existing forest open space areas and the creation or revegetation of new areas. This webinar discusses common issues found in the soils of forest open space and ways of restoring the soil.įorest Open Space: Part 2 - Vegetation Restoration Subjects include: not doing the bare minimum using common sense during development and protecting soils some of the theory behind ESC and SWM the construction sequence grading plans maintenance of ESC facilities and not relying on one or two measures to protect the entire site.įorest Open Space: Part 1 - Soil Restoration The webinar will provide general information about meeting and exceeding the erosion and sediment control program and construction general permit requirements. This two and a half hour webinar (2.5 contact hours) targets the construction industry but is suited for everyone who is certified in erosion and sediment control (ESC) and stormwater management (SWM). This one hour webinar (one contact hour) discusses how soils erode and how sediment is transported and deposited in the context of sediment basin design, plan review and inspection.įive Easy Rules for Erosion and Sediment Control Participants will also be challenged to understand sites from a more diverse perspective.Įrodibility, Sedimentation and Sediment Basin Design Participants will learn skills to more effectively address site issues related to compliance or complaints. This webinar addresses hostile situations or attempts to inappropriately influence erosion and sediment control or stormwater staff work. This 1.5 hour webinar (1.5 contact hours) presents techniques to enhance communication skills with onsite personnel, neighboring residents, and other parties affected by a project. This webinar discusses methods to document inspection observations and common issues and errors on inspection reports. This one hour webinar (1 contact hour) is relevant for SWM/ESC inspector and program administrator certification renewals. Webinars for all ESC & SWM Certifications This course is part of a curriculum that contains online training prerequisites. NOTE: Participants must bring a laptop equipped with Microsoft Excel (2007 or newer). These topics provide the foundation that will allow participants to fully engage in this course, relate plan review strategies and tools to plan design, and build on existing skills. Participants should already have a basic understanding of stormwater runoff hydrologic and hydraulic principles used in stormwater plan design, as well as concepts covered in the erosion and sediment control (ESC) plan review course such as: ESC requirements ESC law and regulations ESC plan review computations for sediment traps and basins, outlet protection, ditches and channels time of concentration Rational Method and Graphic Peak Design Method (TR55). Virginia Runoff Reduction Method and spreadsheet.Overview of stormwater plan design hydrologic/hydraulic concepts.Virginia stormwater management law and regulations.This three-day course (2/23 - 2/25) is for individuals reviewing SWM plans submitted for approval to a VSMP authority or entity with standards and specifications. Land Application - Virginia Pollution Abatement (VPA).Fees Under the Air Pollution Control Law.
